Miyoko kept an eye on the backstage monitor, to keep up with where in the setlist they were - even if she wasn't supposed to get onstage after a while; not being in either of Team A or K, whilst listening to the other idols' conversation.

Tsugi no Crown followed, and that was followed up by Amagami Hime, and when the lights dimmed to darkness after that, the hall fell into silence, as everyone knew what would follow this.

Steps echoed throughout the silent concert hall, of someone moving up to the center stage. "It's so nice to see everyone here. Of course, I didn't doubt that this day would come," Mei said. "Although it was different from what I expected, succession is something I am happy to have gone through. It's a different experience." She paused. "My name is Kimura Mei. It has always been, and will always be. It is a name that my parents gave me, and it is not something I am going to give up. I may, however, in the forseeable future wear another name as well. I am still going to be me. The new me, and the old me. They are both me, and they are both parts of what make up the whole me. The old me, is Kimura Mei.

"Come on, everyone!" Takamina called, ushering everyone out on stage.
